Replace “turnips” with “Yukon Gold potatoes” in this recipe and get back to me which tastes better.

I too was surprised to see the Saxo on here. I drove one around on my first Eurotrip. 

Ahh...that new car smell.

I had a Samurai. It was OK. Trying to maintain 60MPH while driving uphill with a headwind was a challenge.

The automatic transmission in the Smart was dim-witted. At low speed you could not get it to change up and at higher reves it went through every gear rather quickly. Awful piece of shit transmission.

I still have my ED. It is a joy to drive. And it beats everything off the line.

What is most fantastical is that they are afraid of a group/organization that simply doesn’t exist. They had to create this bogeyman in order to rationalize/justify their own existence and violence. As a group they are loud, angry and mean. Stand them alone and they cower in a corner.

Exactly! Recently did a mortgage based upon my income from investments (retired). They wanted to know my net income. I told them it is irrelevant as gross income is the barometer for mortgage loans. Just because I don’t have a job doesn’t mean the bar moves on my credit-worthiness or reported income.

My two youngest eschewed college, both had jobs by age 14. Stayed with the same company for 20 years (and counting), own homes, cars and healthy 401k’s. No shame in skipping the college route. May not work for everyone but did for them.

This kid had nearly $11k in expenses this year, not counting insurance and other miscellaneous. That means his net income was closer to $19k - which works out to about $9/hour. Not something any rational adult should do. Only to be done in the most dire of circumstances.

My wife’s business loses money 4 out of every five years. This is on purpose, as it keeps auditors at bay. Regardless, claimed income for taxes is far different than actual income. Really poorly framed article. Also, the author should know to do regular maintenance on a yearly basis so while he can still show…

Said the guy standing on the roadside not driving a car.

I’m not a very good handyman/wrencher but I insist on having very good tools. Only because I want my kids to fight over them when I die.

Knipex are the bomb. I have 3 different sizes. Just keep in mind that they are pricey.

Those things need a kidney transplant.

And Larry’s homework.

No. He’s still shit but no longer The Shit.

Yeah - all I could do was gaze at its awfulness.

And then add in local sales taxes and the ever-present “dealer fee”. Then you have to have the will to deflect the dealer’s “tire & wheel insurance” and TruCoat pitches.

Gee, it seems for once he was not Chip Ganasshole.
